Total purchases = Cash purchases + credit purchases

Mark up = Gross profit/cost of sales

But gross profit = 23,000,000, mark up = 25%

25% = 23,000,000/cost of sales

0.25 = 23,000,000/cost of sales

0.25 cost of sales = 23,000,000

Cost of sales = 23,000,000/0.25

Cost of sales = 92,000,000

From income statement

Sales – cost of sales = gross profit

Sales – 92,000,000 = 23,000,000

Sales = 23,000,000 + 92,000,000


Sales = 115,000,000

But cost of sales = opening stock + purchases – closing stock

92,000,000 = 6,000,000 +purchases – 8,000,000

92,000,000 – 6,000,000 + 8,000,000 = Purchases

94,000,000 = Purchases
